/Spot got Failed 611 LED code

Hello All
We are getting /spot fail problem when we installing one LPAR from NIM
server .the Reference code is showing 0610 LED code ..
The bootp sequence went OK, The bootimage gets collected and the systems
continues boot. (i guess network setting are OK)
Then the NFS mount for the SPOT fails with "LED 611:failure: mount
-LP101:/export/spot/sopt53TL7sp3usr /SPOT/usr"
verified the Gateway from the SMS menu's. When setting the IPL device,I did
the ping request and I found the NIM server.
root:/# cat /etc/exports
/aix_src_5300-07 -anon=0
/aix_src_5300-06 -anon=0
/aix_src_6100-00 -anon=0
/export -anon=0
/backup -rw,access=HKDA2RS04
/hsbc/kb/db_backup/stskb/db2sts1u/db -anon=0
I checked all NFS service seeming all are fyn .....not getting where we were
lacking
if any one have some suggestion plz let me know ,all suggestion will be
appreciate
Thanks in advance

Sorry, should have added that you must ensure that the host entry
matches the correct IP address , its not the hostname that's the issue
but you must check that
the host entry on your nim server matches the expected client IP of your
nim machine.

Hi
Have you checked, that nfs mount from another server on the "target" netvork can work ?
Do you have router/firewall in the network ?
What about speed/duplex problem on the network, this had been giving us problems.
Have you checked DNS /etc/hosts for mis-spellings ?

Hi
It sounds like a network problem to me. I have never seen 611 without having problem in the network routing or speed/duplex area.
I would do iptrace on the NIM server, and if you can also on the physical net where the client reside.
When I have similar problems, a trace always help to clarify the problem.

Could be that your NFS attributes are not set properly.
I do believe that you need to have portcheck set to 0 and nfs_use_reserved_ports set to 0 as well.
If nothing else ensure that these attributes are the same on the Master and the client.
If you are using 100MB/sec NICs set the speed to 100 and the protocol to full duplex. Do not leave at auto negociate.
If there is a firewall between the Master and the client , you'll need to have the firewall ports 1058,1059,3901 and 3902 open for NIM to work properly.
NFS needs port 2049.
